Description

  • Content Description: Report discussing the hydrodynamic characteristics of a flying boat with a low-drag, planing-tail hull compared with a conventional-type hull. The planing-tail model had more take-off stability than the conventional model and had lower hydrodynamic resistance. Information about the landing stability, variation of trim with speed, and spray characteristics is also provided.
